The  Astronomical  computations  for  this  Almanac  are  given  ge- 
nerally for  Mean  Time  at  New  York. 

The  time  of  the  Sun's  Rising  and  Setting,  and  the  Length  of 
Days,  have  reference  to  the  Sun's  Upper  Limb,  corrected  for  Re- 
fraction. The  Moon's  Rising  and  Setting  are  also  given  for  the 
Upper  Limb,  corrected  for  Parallax  and  Refraction. 

ECLIPSES  AND  TRANSIT  OF  MERCURY. 
In  1845  there  will  be  four  Eclipses — two  of  the  Sun  and  two  of 
the  Moon — and  a  Transit  of  Mercury. 

I.  An  Annular  Eclipse  of  the  Sun,  May  6th,  partially  visible  at 
New  York.

Magnitude  of  the  Eclipse  at  Sunrise=2°  on  Sun's  North  Limb. 
This  Eclipse  will  be  visible  throughout  the  greater  portion  of 
Europe,  and  in  the  North-eastern  portion  of  the  United  States  ;  it 
will,  therefore,  be  peculiarly  valuable  for  determining  longitudes 
in  this  country. 

II.  A  Transit  of  Mercury,  May  8th.  visible  at  New  York. 

d.        b.  m.

Venus  will  be  the  Morning  Star  from  the  beginning  of  the  year  to 
its  superior  conjunction  with  the  Sun,  May  lGth,  then  Evening

brilliancy  December  21st,  when  it  may  be  seen  in  clear  weather

hind the  Sun.  Mars  will  be  Morning  Star  to  its  opposition, 
August  18th,  then  Evening  Star  to  the  end  of  the  year.  Jupiter

Description  of  the  City  of  ]\ew  York. 

(The  facts  chiefly  from  McCulloch's  Gazetteer.  J 

Location  of  the  City,  Population,  &c. 

NEW  YORK  CITY,  the  principal  city  of  the  State  of  New 
I  York,  and  in  population,  wealth,  and  commerce,  the  largest  city 
in  the  United  States,  deserves  to  be  denominated  the  London  of 
|  America.  The  City  Hall  is  in  40°  4:2'  40"  N.  lat.,  and  74°  1'  8"  W. 
jlong.  from  Greenwich,  and  3°  0'  10"  E.  long,  from  Washington.  It 
| is  80  miles  N.  E.  Philadelphia,  210  m.  S.  W.  Boston,  225  m.  N.  E. 
'Washington,  070  m.  N.  E.  Charleston,  145  m.  S.  Albany,  372  m.  S. 
Montreal,  1370  m.  N.  E.  New  Orleans. 

The  Population,  in  1790,  was  33,131;  in  1800.  00.489:  in  1810, 
90,373;  in  1820,  123,706;  in  le30,  202,589;  in  1840,  312,710.  Em- 
ployed in  commerce,  11,305;  in  manufactures  and  trades,  43,390; 
in  navigating  the  ocean,  2,786;  do.  rivers  and  canals,  716;  in  the 
'learned  professions,  2,929. 

There  are  not  more  than  five  or  six  cities  in  Europe  more  popu- 
lous than  New  York,  viz.,  London,  Paris,  Constantinople,  St.  Peters- 
burgh,  Naples,  and  perhaps  Vienna. 

The  compact  part  of  the  city  is  situated  on  the  south  end  of  New! 
jYork  or  Manhattan  island,  at  the  confluence  of  Hudson  or  North) 
j  river,  with  a  strait  called  East  river,  which  connects  Long1 
plsland  Sound  with  the  harbor  of  New  York.  The  chartered  limits| 
>of  the  city  embrace  the  whole  island,  which  is  of  the  same  extentj 
I  with  the  county.  The  island  extends  from  the  Battery,  on  the  S. 
jpoint  of  the  island,  13  1-3  m.  to  Kingsbridge,  in  its  N.  part ;  and  has 
Jan  average  breadth  of  1  m.  and  three  fifths.  The  greatest  breadthj 
jis  oh  the  line  of  88th  street,  where  its  breadth  is  about  2  1-3  m.,  and: 
lit  contains  about  14,000  acres.  It  is  bounded  on  the  N.  by  Harlem  I 
jriver  or  strait,  the  western  part  of  which,  from  Kingsbridge  to  the, 
Hudson,  was  named  by  the  Dutch  Spuyten  DuyveJ  creek;  on  the 
IE.  by  East  river  or  strait,  which  separates  it  from  Long  Island;  on 
[the  S.  by  the  harbor;  and  on  the  W.  by  Hudson  river,  which 
'separates'  it  from  New  Jersey.  It  is  connected  with  the  main  land 
jon  the  N.  by  three  bridges,  Harlem  bridge,  Macomb's  bridge,  and 
j  King's  bridge. 

~  The  Harbor— Its  Islands,  Forts,  &c. 
The  harbor  of  New  York  is  spacious  and  safe,  the  inner  harbor! 
extending  8  miles  from  the  Narrows  to  the  city,  and  several  miles  j 
'further  up  both  the  North  and  East  Rivers,  but  particularly  the 
[latter.  Besides  this,  it  has  an  outer  harbor,  extending  from  the 
'Narrows  to  Sandy  Hook,  consisting  of  Raritan  bay.  Sandy  Hook,| 
jon  which  is  a  light-house,  is  18  miles  from  the  city;  and  at  this) 
'point  there  are  27  feet  of  water  on  the  bar  at  high  tide,  and  21  feet! 
at  low  tide.  Within  Sandy  Hook,  there  is  a  good  anchorage.  The 
harbor  is  entered  not  only  from  the  ocean  at  Sandy  Hook  and| 
through  the  Narrows,  but  on  the  north-east  from  Long  Island ! 
Sound,  and  on  the  south-west  through  the  Kills  and  Staten  Island) 
'  Sound. 

Several  islands  within  the  inner  harbor  are  attached  to  the  city,] 
which  are  Governor's,  Bedlow's,  and  Ellis'  Islands,  on  all  of  which, 
I are  strong  fortifications  ;  and  Blackwell's,  Great  Barn,  and  Ran- 
dall's Islands,  in  the  East  River.  Governor's  Island  is  3200  feetj 
from  the  city  at  the  Battery,  and  includes  70  acres  of  ground.  It 
contains  Fort  Columbus,  in  the  form  of  a  star  on  the  south  of  | 
the  island,  and  Castle  William  on  the  north-west  point,  which  isj 
a  round  tower,  600  feet  in  circumference  and  60  feet  high,  withj 


DESCRIPTION    OF    NEW    YORK.  55 


three  tiers  of  guns.  There  is  also  a  battery  on  the  north-west 
side,  commanding  the  entrance  through  Buttermilk  channel.  At 
the  Narrows,  on  the  eastern  shore  of  Long  Island,  are  Fort  Hamil- 
ton and  Fort  Lafayette,  the  latter  of  which  (formerly  called  Fort 
Diamond)  is  built  on  a  reef  of  rocks,  200  yards  from  the  shore. 
The  Narrows,  here  about  one  third  of  a  mile  wide,  has  on  Staten 
Island,  on  its  west  side,  Fort  Tompkins  and  Fort  Richmond, 
which  are  strong  fortifications.  The  entrance  from  the  Sound  on 
East  River  is  defended  by  Fort  Schuyler  on  Throg's  Neck.  On 
Governor's  Island  are  houses  for  the  officers,  and  barracks  which 
are  occupied  by  a  considerable  garrison.  On  the  whole,  the  har 
bor  of  New  York  must  be  considered  as  well  defended,  and  in  a 
very  different  state  from  what  it  was  during  the  last  war  with 
Great  Britain.  If  even  then  they  did  not  venture  to  approach 
New  York,  much  less  would  they  do  it  now,  in  case  of  war.  which 
it  is  hoped  may  not  occur.  After  passing  the  bar  at  Bandy  Hook, 
the  channel  to  the  city  has  a  depth  of  water  of  from  35  to  50  feet. 
The  average  tide  at  the  wharves  is  from  6  to  7  feet.  Steamboats  are 
constantly  employed  in  towing  vessels  to  and  from  the  ocean.  The 
safest  and  best  portion  of  the  harbor,  and  where  the  vessels  chiefly 
lie,  is  along  East  River,  where  there  is  rarely  any  obstruction  from 
ice.  The  tide  sweeps  through  this  part  with  a  strong  and  rapid 
enrrent ;  and  in  the  winter  of  1844.  when  the  harbor  of  Boston 
and  the  west  part  of  Long  Island  Sound  were  much  obstructed 
with  ice,  no  inconvenience  was  felt  at  New  York.  The  excellence 
of  its  harbor,  and  other  great  natural  advantages,  have  contributed 
to  make  it  the  second  commercial  city  on  the  globe. 

Improvements— Widening  of  Streets,  &c. 
The  surface  of  the  island  of  Manhattan  was  originally  uneven 
and  rough,  as  is.  now  the  case  in  the  northern  parts,  with  occa- 
sional low  valleys  and  marshy  swamps ;  but  the  hills  in  the  south- 
ern part  of  the  island  have  been  levelled,  and  the  swamps  and 
marshes  filled  up.  Many  creeks  and  inlets  on  the  margins  of  the 
rivers  have  also  disappeared,  and  the  large  ledge  of  rocks  which 
occupied  the  site,  of  the  Battery,  has  long  since  been  buried  be- 
neath the  made  ground  which  constitutes  that  beautiful  promenade. 
The  water  line  has  been  materially  altered  from  what  it  originally 
was.  A  large  part  of  Water,  Front,  and  South  streets  on  the  East 
river,  and  of  Greenwich,  Washington,  and  West  streets  on  the 
Hudson  river  in  the  south  part  of  the  city,  occupy  ground  which 
has  been  made  by  rilling  in  these  rivers.  The  most  elevated 
ground  on  the  island  is  238  feet  above  tide  water.  The  city  which 
is  built,  extends  over  three  miles  on  ^ach  river,  and  the  compact 
part  has  a  circumference  of  over  nine  miles.  But  its  limits  are 
continually  extending,  and  will  soon  greatly  surpass  these  bound- 
aries. The  streets  were  originally  laid  out  according  to  the  make 
of  the  ground,  and  some  of  them  were  crooked ;  and  in  imitation 
of  European  cities,  many  of  them  were  narrow.  But  in  later  times 
I  they  have  been  widened  and  improved  at  a  great  expense.  It 
seemed  a  little  barbarous  at  the  time,  to  cut  oft*  20  feet  from  valu- 
able houses  by  the  row  ;  but  when  these  improvements  were  efiect- 
1  ed,  the  proprietors  themselves  found  occasion  to  be  well  satisfied 
with  the  change.  By  these  improvements,  many  fine  streets  have 
j  been  made  of  those  which  before  were  unsightly  and  inconve- 
nient As  instances  of  this  among  others,  John  street  and  West 
1  Broadway  may  be  particularly  mentioned,  as  well  as  many  others.

DESCRIPTION    OF    NEW  YORK. 


Had  the  forecast  of  William  Penn  been  concerned  in  originally 
laying  out  the  city  of  New  York,  millions  of  dollars  might  have 
been  saved.  But  it  should  be  recollected  that  he  had  a  more 
smooth  and  even  surface  to  work  upon.  He  expected  that  he  was 
laying  out  a  great  city  for  posterity ;  but  the  first  inhabitants  of 
New  York  never  expected  that  it  would  be  what  it  now  is,  and  is 
likely  to  become.  In  latter  times  care  has  been  taken  to  lay 
out  the  streets  straight,  and  of  an  ample  width.  This  is  particu- 
larly true  of  all  the  northern  part  of  the  city,  which  was  laid  out 
under  the  direction  of  Governeur  Morris,  De  Witt  Clinton,  and 
others,  commissioners  appointed  by  the  Legislature  for  this  pur- 
pose, and  surveyed  by  Mr.  John  Randall,  Jr.,  completed  in  1821, 
after  having  occupied  ten  years.  No  city  can  exhibit  a  more  beau- 
tiful plan  than  this  portion  of  the  city  of  New  York,  which  extends 
to  154th  street,  about  ten  miles  north  of  the  Battery. 

The  Principal  Streets— Description  of. 
Broadway — Extends  from  the  Battery  nearly  three  miles,  to 
Union  Square,  where  it  joins  the  Fourth  Avenue.  It  is  80  feet 
wide,  perfectly  straight,  occupies  the  height  of  land  between  the 
two  rivers,  and  has  generally,  particularly  in  its  southern  part,  an 
excellent  drainage.  It  is  well  built,  with  many  fine  houses,  and 
numerous  large  retail  stores.  It  is  the  great  promenade  of  the 
city,  and  much  resorted  to  in  pleasant  weather  by  the  gay  and 
fashionable. 

Pearl  Street— Between  Broadway  and  the  East  river,  is  in  a  cres- 
cent form,  over  a  mile  long,  and  is.  the  principal  seat  of  the  whole- 
sale dry  goods  and  hardware  business,  which  has  also  extended 
into  Cedar,  Pine,  and  other  adjacent  streets. 

Water  and  Front  Streets— -Between  Pearl  Street  and  the  East 
river,  are  occupied  chiefly  by  wholesale  grocers,  commission  mer- 
chants, and  mechanics  connected  with  the  shipping  business. 

South  Street — Extends  along  the  margin  of  East  river,  and  con- 
tains the  warehouses  and  offices  of  the  principal  shipping  mer- 
chants.  In  front  of  it  there  is,  at  all  times,  a  dense  forest  of  masts. 

Wall  Street — Extends  from  Broadway  to  the  East  river,  and  is 
occupied  by  banks,  insurance  offices,  newspaper  and  brokers' 
offices :  has  Trinity  Church  at  its  head,  the  Custom  House  and 
Merchants'  Exchange,  and  many  fine  granite  buildings,  which  has 
caused  it  to  be  sometimes  denominated  the  granite  street.  It  is  the 
centre  of  the  heaviest  money  transactions  in  the  United  States. 

The  Bowery— la  a  wide  and  extensive  street  east  of  Broadway, 
running  north  and  south,  connected  with  Avenue  Third  which  is 
macadamized  to  Harlem,  and  forms  the  principal  entrance  to  the 
city  from  the  north-east. 

East  Broadway — And  parallel  to  it  Madison,  Henry,  and  Monroe 
Streets,  running  a  little  north  of  east  and  south  of  west,  are  broad 
and  straight  streets,  and  handsomely  built. 

Bleecker,  Bond,  and  other  streets  in  the  northern  part  of  the 
city  are  beautifully  built,  and  have  become  fashionable  streets  for 
residences. 

Canal  Street— Half  a  mile  north  of  the  City  Hall,  and  now  much 
below  the  centre  of  the  population,  is  a  wide  street  with  a  large 
covered  canal  under  it,  is  occupied  extensively  by  stores,  and  the 
seat  of  an  extensive  retail  business.  It  crosses  Broadway  nearly 
at  nght  angles,  and  extends  to  Hudson  river.  In  the  year  1800,  the 
site  of  this  street  was  extensively  occupied  by  a  large  pond,  called

57 


Fresh  Water,  or  the  Collect,  which  received  the  drainage  of  400 
acres  of  ground.  This  was  the  northern  limit  of  Broadway  in 
1801,  and  much  beyond  the  thickly  settled  part  of  the  city. 

Greenwich  Street — A  long,  wide,  and  nearly  straight  street,  ex- 
tends north  from  the  Battery  nearly  two  miles  and  a-half,  parallel 
to  Hudson  river,  has  many  stores  and  fine  buildings, 

Hudson  Street,  east  of  Greenwich,  and  parallel  to  it,  is  wide 
and  straight,  extends  from  Chambers  Street  to  Avenue  Ninth,  over 
a  mile  and  three  quarters  long,  and  well  built  in  many  of  its  parts. 

Chatham  Street — Named  in  honor  of  the  Earl  of  Chatham,  ex- 
tends from  Broadway  to  Chatham  Square,  at  the  commencement 
of  the  Bowery.  It  is  a  great  thoroughfare,  and  particularly  distin- 
guished for  its  numerous  clothing  stores. 

Grand,  Broome,  and  Houston  Streets — Are  extensive  and  im- 
portant streets,  north  of  the  centre  of  the  city. 

Groton  Water  Works, 
The  cheapest  and  most  convenient  mode  of  visiting  the  Distrib 
uting  Reservoir  in  Fortieth  Street,  or  the  Receiving  Reservoir,  in 
Eighty  Sixth  Street,  is  by  the  cars  of  the  Harlem  Rail  Road,  which 
leave  the  depot,  at  the  junction  of  Chatham  and  Centre  Streets, 
opposite  the  City  Hall,  every  fifteen  minutes  during  the  day. 

No  stranger  should  leave  the  commercial  metropolis  till  he  has 
visited  one  or  both  of  the  reservoirs  of  the  most  splendid  and  ex- 
pensive public  work  of  modern  times.  It  was  at  first  estimated 
that  it  would  cost  five  or  six  millions  of  dollars ;  and  at  the  city- 
charter  election  of  1835,  the  citizens  were  required  to  vote  for  or 
against  supplying  the  city  in  this  way.  The  whole  number  of 
votes  given  was  17,330,  of  whom  5,9G3  were  against  it,  and  11,367 
in  favor  of  it.  It  was.  probably  a  happy  circumstance  that  it  was 
not  then  known  how  much  it  would  ultimately  cost ;  as,  after 
having  experienced  its  great  advantages,  no  one  now  regrets  its 
construction.  The  aqueduct  commences  at  the  Croton  river,  five 
miles  from  the  Hudson  river,  in  Westchester  county. 

The  minimum  flow  of  water  in  the  river,  where  the  dam  is  con- 
structed, is  considered  to  be  twenty-seven  millions  of  gallons  for 
every  twenty-four  hours,  whjch  would  be  a  sufficient  supply  for 
one  million  of  inhabitants.  It  is  considered  that  the  supply  for 
the  present  is  abundant,  even  during  a  season  of  drought,  for  one 
million  and  a-half  of  inhabitants,  nearly  five  times  the  present 
population ;  and  streams  can  be  found  which  can  be  turned  into 
the  upper  branches  of  the  Croton,  if  the  time  ever  arrives  when 
the  population  of  the  city  will  require  r.  n  increased  supply. 

The  velocity  of  the  water  in  the  aqueduct  has  been  ascertained 
to  be  about  one  mile  and  a-half  an  hour  where  it  is  two  feet  deep. 

The  Dam — Is  250  feet  long,  70  feet  wide  at  bottom,  and  7  feet  at 
top,  and  40  feet  high,  built  of  stone  and  cement.  It  creates  a  pond 
five  miles  long,  covering  a  surface  of  400  acres,  and  contains 
500.000,000  gallons  of  water. 

The  Jlqueduct  proceeds  from  the  dam,  sometimes  tunnelling 
through  solid  rocks,  crossing  valleys  by  embankments,  and  brooks 
by  culverts,  until  it  reaches  Harlem  river,  a  distance  of  thirty-three 
miles.  It  is  built  of  stone,  brick,  and  cement,  arched  over  and 
under,  six  feet  three  inches  wide  at  bottom,  seven  feet  eight  inches 
at  the  top  of  the  side  walls,  and  eight  feet  five  inches  high,  has  a 
descent  of  thirteen  and  a  quarter  inches  per  mile,  and  will  dis- 
charge sixty  millions  of  gallons  in  twenty-four  hours.

Aqueduct  Bridge  at  Harlem  River. 

The  Aqueduct  will  cross  Harlem  river  on  a  magnificent  bridge 
of  stone,  1450  feet  long,  with  14  piers,  eight  of  them  80  feet  span, 
and  seven  of  50  feet  span,  114  feet  above  tide-water  at  the  top,  and 
will  cost  $900,000.  This  bridge  is  in  progress  ;  and  for  the  present 
the  water  is  brought  across  th<^  river  in  an  iron  pipe,  laid  as  an 
inverted  syphon. 

The  Receiving  Reservoir — Is  at  Eighty-sixth  street,  38  miles 
from  the  Croton  Dam,  and  covers  35  acres,  and  contains  150  mil- 
lions of  gallons. 

The  Distributing  Reservoir — At  Fortieth  Street,  about  three 
miles  from  the  City  Hall,  constructed  with  stone  and  cement,  cov- 
ers four  acres,  and  is  43  feet  high  above  the  street,  is  36  feet  deep 
when  full  of  water,  and  holds  20  millions  of  gallons.  Thence  the 
water  is  distributed  in  the  city  in  iron  pipes,  laid  deep  under 
ground,  to  be  secure  from  frost.  A  section  of  the  wall  on  one  side 
of  the  Reservoir,  including  the  embankment,  is  17  feet  wide  at  the 
top,  35  feet  wide  at  the  distance  of  16  feet  below  the  top,  and  76 
feet  wide  at  the  bottom.  An  iron  railing  bounds  the  outside  and 
inside  of  the  walk  around  the  top. 

This  Reservoir  may  be  considered  the  termination  of  the  Croton 
Aqueduct,  and  is  distant  from  the  Fountain  Reservoir  at  the  Cro- 
ton, forty  and  a  half  miles. 

The  whole  cost  of  the  work  will  be  about  $12,000,000.  There 
are  laid  between  the  Distributing  Reservoir  in  Fortieth  Street,  and 
the  Battery,  150  miles  and  3,665  feet  of  pipe,  from  6  to  36  inches 
in  diameter,  the  majority  of  which  is  from  6  to  12  inches  in  dia- 
meter ;  and  free  hydrants  are  opened  in  most  of  the  streets,  besides 
the  fire  hydrants.   There  are  1400  fire,  and  600  free  hydrants. 

Introducing  of  the  Water. — The  water  was  introduced  into  this 
Reservoir  on  the  4th  July,  1842,  and  on  the  14th  of  October  follow- 
ing, the  water  was  introduced  intb  the  city. 

But  little  inconvenience  was  felt  during  the  cold  weather  of  last 
winter  to  the  hydrants.  No  city  in  the  world  is  now  better  supplied 
with  pure  and  wholesome  water  than  the  city  of  New  York. 

Analysis  of  the  Croton  Water. — Croton  Water,  taken  from  the 
Croton  dam,  when  perfectly  clear,  was  found  to  contain  4.998,  or 
about  five  grains  of  solid  matter  to  the  gallon.  Schuylkill  water, 
taken  from  the  middle  basin,  on  Fairmount,  contained  4.08  grains 
of  solid  matter  to  the  gallon. 

Croton  and  Schuylkill  Water  Compared. — The  Croton  differs  from 
the  Schuylkill  in  containing  a  larger  amount  of  the  alkaline  carbon- 
ates, and  of  the  carbonate  of  magnesia,  while  it  contains  less  car- 
bonate of  lime  and  is  entirely  destitute  of  the  alkaline  sulphates, 
of  which  the  Schuylkill  contains  13.74  parts  in  100  of  the  total 
solid  matters,  though  amounting  to  only  one  half  a  grain  to  the 
gallon. 

Croton  and  Thames  Water  Compared. — The  impurities  contained 
in  the  Thames  water,  according  to  a  Report  from  the  Select  Com- 
mittee of  the  House  of  Lords,  appointed  to  inquire  into  the  supply 
of  water  to  the  metropolis,  exceed  those  of  the  Croton  by  nearly 
six  fold ;  and  the  quantity  of  lime  held  in  solution  in  the  former, 
surpasses  that  of  the  latter  about  fifteen  times.  The  Thames 
water  differs  also  from  the  Croton,  in  the  circumstance  that  it  con- 
tains an  appreciable  quantity  of  chloride  of  sodium,  or  common 
salt,  of  which  the  Croton  is  entirely  free.

The  Battery  and  Castle  Garden. 

The  Battery — At  the  southern  end  of  the  city,  is  situated  at  the 
junction  of  Hudson  and  East  Rivers.  It  is  in  the  form  of  a  crescent, 
and  contains  about  11  acres  of  ground,  beautifully  laid  out  with  grass 
plats  and  gravelled  walks,  and  shaded  with  trees.  From  this  spot 
is  a  fine  view  of  the  bay,  with  its  islands,  and  the  adjacent  shores 
of  New  Jersey,  and  Long  and  Staten  Islands,  and  the  scene  is  ge- 
nerally enlivened  by  shipping  under  sail. 

Castle  Garden — Is  built  on  a  mole,  and  connected  with  the  Bat- 
tery by  a  bridge.  It  was  originally  erected  as  a  fortification,  and 
having  become  unnecessary  for  this  purpose,  was  ceded  by  the 
United  States  to  the  corporation  of  the  city,  in  1823.  Within  its 
walls,  10,000  people  can  be  accommodated  in  a  great  amphithea- 
tre ;  and  it  is  frequently  used  for  public  meetings  and  exhibitions. 
The  Park. 

The  Park,  called  in  early  times  the  Commons,  is  a  triangular 
area  of  about  10£  acres,  lying  between  Broadway,  Chatham  and 
Chambers  streets,  is  laid  out  with  walks,  and  planted  with  trees, 
and  surrounded  by  an  iron  fence,  which  cost  over  $15,653.  It  con- 
tains the  City  Hall,  the  new  City  Hall  or  old  Alms  House,  and  the 
Post-office.  It  has  also,  towards  its  southern  part,  a  public  foun- 
tain, within  a  basin,  about  one  hundred  feet  in  diameter,  which 
has  a  variety  of  jets,  which  are  occasionally  changed.  When  the 
water  is  thrown  in  a  single  stream,  it  ascends  to  the  height  of 
about  70  feet,  presenting  a  majestic  and  interesting  appearance. 
The  fountain  is  designed  to  be  made  ye'  more  ornamental. 

The  Bowling  Green. 

The  Bowling  Green,  at  the  southern  termination  of  Broadway, 
is  an  elliptical  area,  220  feet  long  and  140  feet  broad,  enclosed  by 
an  iron  fence.  It  existed  before  the  American  Revolution,  and 
formerly  contained  a  leaden  statue  of  George  III.,  which  was  con- 
verted into  bullets  at  that  period.  It  contains  a  public  fountain, 
which  is  supplied  by  the  Croton  waterworks.  In  the  centre  of  a 
large  basin  is  placed  a  rude  pile  of  huge  rocks  in  a  somewhat  cir- 
cular form,  about  15  feet  in  #ameter,  and  as  many  feet  high,  and 
from  the  top  issues  a  jet,  and  small  jets  around  it,  and  presents,  by 
the  water  pouring  and  tumbling  down  the  sides  of  the  rocks,  a 
wild  and  picturesque  appearance. 

Hudson  Square  or  St.  John's  Park. 

Hudson  Square  or  St.  John's  Park,  between  Beach,  Laight, 
Varick  and  Hudson  streets,  is  private  property,  belonging  to  Trinity 
church,  but  has  been  reserved  as  a  permanent  public  square.  It  is 
beautifully  laid  out  with  walks,  shaded  with  trees,  and  surround- 
ed by  an  iron  fence,  which  cost  $26,000.  It  contains  about  four 
acres  of  ground,  and  has  on  its  eastern  side  St.  John's  Episcopal 
church,  of  beautiful  proportions,  with  a  lofty  spire.  It  has  a 
public  fountain,  and  is,  perhaps,  the  most  ornamental  spot  in  the 
city. 

Washington  Square. 
Washington  Square,  a  mile  and  a  half  north  of  the  City  Hall, 
between  Wooster  and  M'Dougal  streets,  contains  about  9|  acres  of 
erround.  Two-thirds  of  the  area  was  the  Potter's  Field  until 
1827,  and  the  remainder  was  purchased  by  the  city  for  about 
$78,000,  and  the  whole  was  enclosed  by  a  wooden  fence,  which  cost 


60 


DESCRIPTION    OF    NEW  YORK. 


nearly  $3,000,  laid  out  in  walks,  and  planted  with  trees.  On  the 
eastern  side  it  has  the  fine  building  of  the  New  York  University, 
and  an  elegant  Dutch  church,  both  handsome  specimens  of  Gothic 
architecture.  On  the  northern  and  southern  sides  it  has  blocks  of 
fine  buildings,  and  is  destined,  when  the  trees  shall  be  fully  grown, 
to  be  a  highly  ornamental  ground. 

Union  Place. 

Union  Place,  at  the  northern  termination  of  Broadway,  is  in  an 
elliptical  form,  enclosed  with  a  fine  iron  fence,  having  a  public 
fountain  in  the  centre  with  ornamental  jets,  and  is  a  delightful 
breathing-place  to  the  inhabitants.  All  these  public  grounds  are 
much  frequented  in  the  summer  season.  Farther  up  the  city  are 
other  public  squares,  as  Madison  Square,  Hamilton  Square,  and 
others,  not  yet  regulated.  On  the  east  are  Tompkins  Square  and 
Bellevue,  the  latter  the  seat  of  the  new  almshouse. 

The  City  Hall,  and  other  Buildings  in  the  Park. 

The  City  Hall,  heretofore  regarded  as  much  the  finest  building 
in  the  city,  and  one  of  the  finest  in  the  United  States,  has  a  com- 
manding situation  in  the  middle  of  the  Park,  though  somewhat  in 
the  rear,  and  shows  to  greater  advantage  than  either  of  the  fine 
buildings  to  be  described.  It  has  more  ornament  than  either  the 
Exchange  or  the  Custom  House,  but  less  simple  grandeur ;  though 
with  its  furniture,  it  is,  perhaps,  the  most  interesting  building  in 
the  city.  It  is  216  feet  long,  and  105  wide.  The  front  and  ends 
are  constructed  of  white  marble,  and  the  rear  of  brown  freestone. 
It  is  two  stories  high  above  the  basement,  with  a  third  or  attic 
story  in  the  centre  building ;  and  there  rises  from  the  centre  a 
cupola,  containing  a  clock,  of  fine  workmanship,  and  on  the  top,  a 
colossal  statue  of  Justice.  In  the  upper  part  of  this  cupola  is  a 
room  occupied  by  a  watchman,  whose  business  it  L  to  give  alarm 
in  case  of  fire  ;  and,  from  this  elevated  position,  he  is  able  to  over- 
look the  whole  city.  Behind  this  is  another  less  elevated  cupola, 
with  eight  Ionic  columns,  which  contains  the  City  Hall  bell, 
weighing  6,910  pounds,  whose  deep  and  solemn  tones  often  sound 
the  knell  of  property,  and  by  the  different  number  of  strokes,  indi- 
cate the  district  of  the  city  in  which  a  fire  occurs.  The  front  of 
the  City  Hall  is  ornamented  with  columns  and  pilasters  of  the 
Ionic,  Corinthian,  and  Composite  orders,  rising  above  each  other 
in  regular  gradation.  The  building  is  entered  in  front  by  a  flight 
of  twelve  marble  steps.  In  the  centre  is  a  double  staircase,  as- 
cended by  marble  steps,  at  the  top  of  which  is  a  circular  gallery, 
floored  with  marble,  from  which  ten  marble  columns  of  the  Corin- 
thian order  ascend  to  the  ceiling,  where  is  a  handsome  panelled 
dome,  ornamented  with  stucco,  and  a  skylight,  which  gives  light 
to  the  interior  of  the  building.  There  are  halls  which  lead  from 
the  centre  to  each  end  of  the  building  in  each  story.  In  the  base- 
ment and  the  stories  there  are  twenty-eight  offices  and  other  pub- 
lic rooms,  the  most  conspicuous  of  which  are  the  Governor's  room, 
and  the  chambers  of  the  common  council  and  assistant  aldermen. 

The  Governor's  Room  is  appropriated  to  the  use  of  the  Governor 
of  the  State  when  he  visits  the  city,  and  has  been  used  as  a  recep- 
tion room  for  other  distinguished  men  who  have  occasionally  been 
hp-e.  It  is  52  by  20  feet.  The  walls  of  the  room  are  hung  with  a 
fine  collection  of  portraits,  including  the  Governors  of  the  State, 
the  Mayors  of  the  City  since  the  Revolution,  some  of  the  Dutch 


DESCRIPTION    OF    NEW  YORK.

Governors,  and  the  principal  military  and  naval  heroes  of  the  late 
war,  all  of  which  are  regarded  as  excellent  likenesses,  and  many 
of  them  are  full-length  portraits. 

The  Common  Council  Room  is  42  by  30  feet,  and  the  president 
occupies  the  identical  chair  occupied  by  General  Washington  when  I 
he  presided  over  the  first  American  Congress,  which  assembled  in  J 
New  York.  It  is  surmounted,  as  is  meet,  by  a  canopy.  The  seats! 
of  the  aldermen  are  ranged  in  a  semicircular  form,  in  the  centre! 
of  which  is  a  table  for  the  clerk.  The  room  contains  several  fine 
full-length  portraits,  painted  by  Trumbull,  of  which  that  of  Wash- 
ington is  thought  to  be  the  best  in  existence,  when  he  was  in  the 
prime  of  life.  The  room  of  the  assistant  aldermen  is  handsomely 
fitted  up. 

The  Superior  Court  Room  is  very  neat  and  convenient,  42  by  30 
feet,  and  neatly  fitted  up  for  its  purpose.  But  he  who  looks  over 
the  several  apartments  of  this  building  will  obtain  a  better  idea 
of  it,  than  he  can  from  any  concise  description.  The  building  was 
commenced  in  1803,  and  completed  in  1812,  and  cost  $538,734. 

The  Hall  of  Records,  east  of  the  City  Hall,  in  the  Park,  is  two 
stories  high,  with  a  lofty  portico  of  four  Ionic  pillars  on  each  front ; 
and  in  the  rear  of  it  is  the  JVcw  City  Hall,  formerly  the  old  alms- 
house, which  contains  fifteen  offices,  besides  the  Marine  Court 
Room,  and  the  rooms  of  the  American  Institute,  the  latter  con- 
taining a  valuable  library,  and  various  interesting  models  of  ma- 
chines. 

The  Merchants'  Exchange. 

The  Merchants'  Exchange  covers  the  whole  space  between 
Wall,  William,  Exchange,  and  South  William  Streets.  It  has  a 
somewhat  confined  situation,  and  shows  to  less  advantage  than  if 
it  were  surrounded  by  open  grounds.  It  is  built  in  the  most  sub- 
stantial form,  of  blue  duincy  granite,  and  is  200  feet  long  by  171 
to  144  feet  wide,  77  feet  high  to  the  top  of  the  cornice,  and  124  to 
the  top  of  the  dome.  The  front  on  Wall  Street  has  a  recessed 
portico  of  18  massive  Grecian-Ionic  columns,  38  feet  high  and  four 
feet  four  inches  in  diameter,  each  formed  from  a  solid  block  of 
stone,  and  weighing  43  ton*1  It  required  the  best  application  of 
the  mechanical  powers,  aided  by  horses,  to  raise  these  enormous 
masses.  Besides  numerous  other  rooms  for  various  purposes,  the 
Exchange  in  the  centre  is  in  a  circular  form,  80  feet  in  diameter, 
with  four  recesses,  making  the  length  and  breadth  each  100  feet, 
the  whole  80  feet  high,  surmounted  with  a  dome,  resting  in  part 
on  eight  Corinthian  columns  of  Italian  marble,  41  feet  high,  and 
lighted  by  a  skylight,  25  feet  in  diameter.  On  the  south  side  of 
the  roof  is  a  telegraph,  which  communicates  with  another  on 
Staten  Island ;  and  an  hourly  report  is  sent  down  from  the  tele- 
graph to  the  news-room,  for  public  inspection.  When  it  is  recol- 
lected that  this  fine  building  has  been  erected  in  the  place  of  an 
elegant  exchange  building,  burned  in  the  great  fire  in  1835,  it  is  a 
matter  of  congratulation  that  this  building  is  absolutely  incombus- 
tible, no  wood  but  the  doors  and  window  frames  having  been  used 
in  its  construction.  The  cost  of  this  building,  including  the  ground, 
u  estimated  at  $1,800,000. 

The  Custom  House. 
The  Custom  House,  at  the  head  of  Broad  street,  and  on  the  corner 
of  Wall  and  Nassau  streets,  is  a  splendid  building,  constructed  in  the 


62  DESCRIPTION    OF    NEW  YORK. 

Doric  order  of  Grecian  architecture.  It  is  built  in  the  most  substan- 
tial manner  of  white  marble,  something  after  the  model  of  the  Par- 
thenon at  Athens.  It  occupies  the  site  of  the  old  Federal  Hall,  in  the 
open  gallery  of  which  General  Washington  was  inaugurated;  and 
nearly  over  the  front  door  is  the  place  where  he  stood,  when  the 
oath  of  office,  as  first  President  of  the  United  States  was  adminis- 
tered to  him  by  Chancellor  Livingston,  April  30th,  1789.  The 
building  is  200  feet  long,  90  feet  wide,  and  80  feet  high.  At  the 
southern  end  on  Wall  street,  is  a  portico  of  eight  purely  Grecian 
Doric  columns,  5  feet  8  inches  in  diameter,  and  32  feet  high ;  and 
,  on  the  northern  end  on  Pine  street,  is  a  corresponding  portico  of 
similar  columns.  The  front  portico  is  ascended  by  eighteen  mar- 
ble steps,  and  the  rear  portico  on  Pine  street  by  only  three  or  four 
marble  steps.  It  is  two  lofty  stories  high  above  the  basement  story. 
The  great  business  hall  is  a  splendid  circular  room,  60  feet  in 
diameter,  with  recesses  and  galleries,  making  it  80  feet  in  diameter, 
surmounted  by  a  dome,  supported  by  36  beautiful  Corinthian 
columns,  30  leet  high,  ornamented  in  the  dome  with  stucco,  and 
at  the  top  with  a  skylight.  On  each  side,  are  13  pilasters,  in  per- 
fect keeping  with  the  pillars  on  the  two  fronts.  The  cost  of  the 
building  and  its  furniture  was  $950,000  ;  and  including  the  ground, 
$1,175,000.  It  has  other  large  apartments  than  those  specified,  for 
various  business  purposes.  It  is  absolutely  incombustible,  and 
may  be  expected  to  stand  to  a  late  posterity. 

The  Halls  of  Justice. 

The  Halls  of  Justice  occupies  the  space  between  Centre,  Elm, 
Leonard,  and  Franklin  Streets,  and  is  a  unique  and  beautiful  build- 
ing, of  the  Egyptian  architecture.  It  is  253  feet  long,  and  200  feet 
wide,  the  front  of  which  is  occupied  by  the  main  building,  and 
other  outer  portions  of  which  consist  of  lofty  w^'ls,  with  apart- 
ments in  some  of  their  parts.  Within  this  enclosure,  and  toward 
its  back  part,  is  the  house  of  detention  or  prison,  142  feet  long  and 
45  feet  wide,  which  is  entirely  separate  from  the  outer  wall  and 
building,  and  consists  of  148  cells,  for  different  classes  of  prisoners. 

The  Court  of  Sessions — Occupies  a  part  projecting  back  from  the 
front  building,  the  roof  of  which  is  supported  by  lofty  Egyptian 
columns,  and  it  has  a  gallery.  The  front  of  the  building  is  entered 
by  eight  steps,  leading  to  a  portico  of  four  massive  Egyptian 
columns.  From  this  there  is  an  ascent  by  twelve  steps,  between 
two  massive  columns,  to  an  open  area  of  50  feet  square,  which  has 
eight  large  columns  supporting  the  ceiling  above.  From  this  area 
there  is  an  entrance  to  the  various  offices  and  apartments  of  the 
building.  The  windows,  which  extend  to  the  height  of  two  stories, 
have  massive  frames,  and  cornices  ornamented  with  the  winged 
globe  and  serpents.  The  two  fronts  on  Franklin  and  Leonard 
streets  have  each  two  entrances,  with  two  massive  columns  each  ; 
and  the  back  entrance  forms  a  carriage  way,  for  taking  prisoners  to 
and  from  the  house  of  detention.  This  building,  though  handsome 
of  its  kind,  has  a  heavy  and  gloomy  aspect,  which  has  acquired 
for  it  the  name  of  the  Egyptian  Tombs.  It  is  constructed  of  a  light 
colored  granite,  from  Hallowell,  Me.

The  neio  Trinity  Episcopal  Church— -Will,  when  completed,  be 


1  DESCRIPTION    OF    NEW    YORK.  63 

one  of  the  finest  buildings  in  the  city,  and  the  most  complete 
Gothic  structure  in  the  United  States.  It  stands  at  the  head  of 
Wall  Street,  which  it  fronts.  It  is  in  the  finest  style  of  English 
church  architecture,  built  of  a  light  brown  freestone,  with  much 
beautifully  ornamented  sculpture  in  its  various  parts ,  is  192  feet 
long  upon  the  outside,  84  feet  wide,  and  the  steeple,  when  com- 
pleted, will  be  264  feet  high,  built  of  stone  to  the  top.  The  inside 
will  be  even  more  imposing  than  the  outside.  The  situation  is 
fine,  and  it  is  only  to  be  regretted  that  it  could  not  have  stood  far- 
ther back  from  the  street. 

St.  Paul's  Episcopal  Cliapel — Is  situated  on  Broadway,  between 
Fulton  and  Vesey  Streets,  and  the  burying  ground  extends  west  to 
Church  Street,  and  thus  includes  the  whole  block,  400  by  180  feet, 
surrounded  by  a  handsome  iron  railing.  The  body  of  the  church 
is  90  by  70  feet,  with  a  beautiful  spire,  200  feet  high,  painted  and 
overcast  with  sand  to  resemble  brown  freestone.  The  church  was 
erected  in  1765,  and  the  steeple  in  1794.  It  has  a  beautiful  portico 
of  four  Roman  Ionic  fluted  columns  of  brown  stone,  supporting  a 
pediment  with  a  niche  in  the  centre,  containing  a  statue  of  St. 
Paul,  painted  white. 

St  John's  Episcopal  Chapel — Situated  on  Varick  Street,  directly 
opposite  the  centre  of  St.  John's  Square,  is  a  building  of  fine  pro- 
portions and  beautiful  appearance,  was  finished  in  1810,  and  cost 
over  $200,000.  It  is  111  feet  long,  and  73  wide,  built  of  stone,  and 
has  an  admirably  proportioned  steeple,  220  feet  high,  at  present  the 
fines*  in  the  city.  It  has  in  front  a  splendid  portico  of  four  Corin- 
thian columns. 

St.  Thomas's  Episcopal  Church — In  Broadway,  corner  of  Hous- 
ton Street,  is  a  large  and  imposing  building,  62  feet  wide  by  113 
feet  deep,  built  of  stone.  It  is  in  the  Gothic  style,  and  has  two 
octagon  towers,  one  on  each  of  the  front  corners,  80  feet  high,  with 
pointed  turrets,  and  a  large  Gothic  window  in  front  between  them. 

The  Scotch  Presbyterian  Church — Corner  of  Grand  and  Crosby- 
Streets,  is  a  stone  building,  95  feet  long  and  67  broad,  with  a  fine 
Ionic  portico  of  six  stone  columns,  and  cost  $114,000. 

The  Brick  Church — Conner  of  Nassau  and  Beekman  Streets, 
built  in  1767,  has  been  recently  and  thoroughly  repaired,  and  has 
a  lofty  and  well-proportioned  steeple. 

The  Rutgers'  Street  Church — Is  a  fine  stone  edifice,  with  a  lofty 
square  tower. 

TJte  First  Baptist  Church — In  Broome  Street,  corner  of  Elizabeth  • 
Street,  is  a  fine  stone  edifice,  of  GotL.c  architecture,  from  88  to  110 
feet  long,  and  from  75  to  87  feet  wide,  with  two  octagon  towers  on 
the  front  corners,  and  a  pointed  window  between  them,  22  feet 
wide  and  41  feet  high.  The  interior  is  more  imposing  than  the 
exterior. 

St.  Peter's  Roman  Catholic  Church — In  Barclay  Street,  corner  of 
Church,  is  a  large  and  substantial  granite  structure,  with  a  very 
imposing  Ionic  portico  of  six  granite  columns,  and  a  statue  of  St. 
Peter  in  a  niche  in  the  pediment. 

The  French  Protestant  Episcopal  Church — Corner  of  Franklin  and 
Church  Streets,  is  built  of  white  marble,  and  has  a  portico  with  a 
double  row  of  fine  marble  columns  of  the  Ionic  order.

large  and  imposing  structure  of  Gothic  architecture,  and  appears 
well,  even  by  the  side  of  the  splendid  New  York  University.

DESCRIPTION    OF    NEW  YORK. 


St.  Patrick's  Roman  Catholic  Cathedral — Is  of  stone,  120  feet  long 
and  80  feet  wide,  but  is  more  distinguished  for  its  magnitude  than 
for  its  elegance,  though  it  is  an  imposing  structure. 

The  Middle  Dutch  Church — In  Liberty  Street,  corner  of  Nassau, 
has  been  recently  relinquished  for  public  worship,  having  been 
rented  to  the  General  Government  for  the  use  of  a  Post  Office. 
This  venerable  edifice  has  stood  for  one  hundred  and  fifteen  years, 
and  eight  or  nine  successive  generations  (counting  those  who  were 
aged  at  the  time  of  its  opening),  have  worshipped  within  its  walls. 
On  Sabbath  evening,  11th  August,  1844,  the  closing  exercises  were 
held  in  the  church,  in  the  view  of  resigning  it  for  other  uses.  In 
connection  with  the  usual  devotional  exercises,  a  sermon  was 
preached  by  the  Rev.  Dr.  Knox,  the  senior  pastor,  from  John  iv. 
20-24,  and  an  address  delivered  by  the  Rev.  Dr.  De  Witt,  one  of  the 
pastors.  During  the  Revolutionary  war,  in  1776,  when  the  British 
took  possession  of  the  city,  several  of  the  churches  were  occupied 
and  greatly  injured  by  the  British  soldiery;  but  the  Middle  Dutch 
Chinch  suffered  the  most.  Being  directly  adjacent  to  the  famous 
sugar-house,  the  scene  of  atrocious  and  multiplied  cruelties  inflict- 
ed upon  American  citizens,  it  was  at  once  used  by  the  British  sol- 
diery for  their  quarters,  for  a  hospital,  and  then  for  a  riding  school! 
in  which  British  horsemanship  was  displayed.  The  whole  of  thej 
interior  was  destroyed  and  rendered  desolate.  It  was  not  till  1790j 
that  the  church  was  repaired,  and  again  opened  for  divine  worship,  i

tion  of  young  mechanics  and  others,  but  more  especially  for  ap- 
prentices, in  those  sciences  which  are  involved  in  their  several 
branches  of  business. 

'  The  Institute  has  established  regular  annual  courses  of  instruc- 
tion, by  means  of  popular  lectures  on  a  variety  of  subjects,  and  espe- 
cially on  chemical  and  mechanical  philosophy  It  has  also,  at  the 
rooms  of  the  Institute,  in  the  basement  of  the  City  Hall,  an  excel- 
lent library,  containing  about  fifteen  hundred  volumes ;  a  reading- 
room,  supplied  with  the  most  popular  reviews,  literary  and  scien- 
tific journals,  the  daily  and  weekly  ne\vspaj>ers ;  a  museum  of 
models  of  machinery,  and  a  valuable  collection  of  chemical  and 
philosophical  apparatus. 

The  Institute  has  also  established  an  Annual  Fair,  by  which 
means  the  results  of  the  genius  and  industry  of  the  mechanic  find 
a  ready  avenue  to  the  public  eye.  The  proceeds  of  the  Fourth 
Annual  Fair  were  appropriated  to  the  establishment  of  schools  for 
the  benefit  of  the  children  of  mechanics  ;  and  a  male  school,  under 
the  superintendence  of  the  Board  of  Directors,  was  commenced  in 
November,  1838;  and  a  female  school  in  May,  1839,  both  of  which 
have  been  eminently  successful. 

The  Harlem  Rail  Road. 

This  railroad  extends  from  opposite  the  City  Hall,  on  Centre 
Street,  to  Broome  Street,  where  it  turns  at  right  angles  to  the 
Bowery,  and  there  it  again  turns  nearly  at  right  angles,  and  fbU 
lows  the  Bowery  to  Avenue  Fourth,  or,  which  it  proceeds  to  Har- 
lem, eight  miles,  and  crossing  Harlem  river,  it  is  extended  into 
Westchester  county  as  far  as  where  th^line  crosses  Bronx  river. 
A  part  of  this  coiuse  is  a  deep  cut  throflk  solid  rock,  with  a  tun- 
nel 595  feet  long,  24  feet  wide,  and  21  high  to  the  crown  of  the 
arch,  and  a  high  embankment.  It  has  a  double  track  the  whole 
length ;  and,  to  Harlem,  cost  §137,500  per  mile,  being  by  far  the 
most  expensiv  e  railroad  for  its  length  now  in  the  United  States. 
Within  the  thickly  settled  parts  of  the  city,  as  far  as  Twenty- 
Seventh  Street,  the  cars  are  moved  by  horses,  and  beyond  that, 
by  locomotives.  The  cars  :tart  from  the  City  Hall  once  in  15 
minutes. 

Ferries. 

The  city  is  connected  with  Long  Island  by  six  ferries,  four  of 
which  proceed  to  Brooklyn,  and  three  to  Williamsburg.  Of  the 
ferries  to  Brooklyn,  the  South  Ferry  extends  from  Whitehall,  New 
York,  to  Atlantic  Street,  Brooklyn,  and  is  1300  yards  wide ;  the 
Fulton  Ferry  extends  from  Fulton  Street,  New  York,  to  Fulton 
Street,  Brooklyn,  and  is  731  yards  wide ;  the  Catherine  Ferry  ex- 
tends from  Catherine  Street,  New  York,  to  Main  Street,  Brooklyn, 
and  is  730  yards  wide ;  the  Navy  Yard  Ferry  extends  from  Walnut 
Street,  New  York,  to  Jackson  Street,  Brooklyn,  and  is  707  yards 
wide.  Of  the  three  ferries  to  Williamsburg,  one  is  about  950  yards 
wide,  and  another,  crossing  East  river  obliquely,  is  about  a  mile 
and  a  half  in  length.  Three  ferries  connect  the  city  with  New 
Jersey ;  one  from  Cortlandt  Street,  New  York,  to  Jersey  city,  is  about 
a  mile  wide,  and  two  ferries,  one  from  the  foot  of  Barclay  Street, 
and  another  from  the  foot  of  Canal  Street,  New  York,  to  Hoboken, 
which  are  wider.  On  two  ferries,  boats  are  continually  plying  to 
Staten  Island.  Thus  the  insular  situation  of  New  York  proves  no 
serious  disadvantage.  The  ferries  to  Brooklyn  are  by  far  the  most 
important,  as  many  persons  who  do  business  in  New  York  reside

in  that  city.  These  ferries  are  crossed  in  from  four  to  six  minutes,

The  works  of  the  Company  are  situated  at  the  corner  of  Canal 
and  Centre  Streets,  and  nearly  thirty  miles  of  iron  pipes  are  laid 
down  in  the  city.  A  large  number  of  the  streets,  stores,  and  other

There  are  besides  these,  in  several  lines,  24  ships  of  the  largest 
class,  with  a  great  capacity  for  freight,  and  elegant  accommoda- 
tions for  passengers,  one  of  which  sails  for  Liverpool  every  five 
days.  Two  lines  of  twelve  large  ships  sail  for  London,  one  vesseli 
every  ten  days.  Two  lines,  one  of  twelve,  and  the  other  of  four] 
large  ships,  making  sixteen  in  the  whole,  sail  for  Havre,  France,! 
every  eight  days.  Lines  are  also  established  to  all  the  principal) 
ports  of  the  United  States,  the  West  Indies,  and  South  America.)

New  York  State  Courts. 

The  Courts  of  Common  Pleas,  within  their  several  counties,  have 
a  jurisdiction,  concurrent  with  the  jurisdiction  of  the  Supreme 
Court,  in  civil  cases.   They  also  have  an  appellate  jurisdiction  of 
auses  arising  in  Justices'  Courts.    The  Judges  of  the  Common 
| j Pleas,  or  one  Judge  of  the  Common  Pleas  a  nd  two  Justices  of  the; 


COURTS    IN"    THE    STATE    OF    SEW    YORK.  109, 

Peace,  form  the  Court  of  General  Sessions  of  each  county,  which 
have  jurisdiction  in  all  criminal  cases  of  an  inferior -degree  to  those 
the  punishment  of  which  is  imprisonment  in  the  States  Prison  for 
;a  less  term  than  ten  years. 

The  Circuit  Courts  are  each  held  by  a  Circuit  Judge.  Their 
business  is  the  trial  of  questions  of  fact,  arising  upon  causes  of 
litigation  in  the  Supreme  Court.  They  have  no  original  jurisdic- 
tion. They  are  Vice  Chancellors',  except  in  the  First  and  Eighth 
Circuits. 

Courts  of  Oyer  and  Terminer  are  held  simultaneously  with  the' 
Circuits.  These  are  courts  of  criminal  jurisdiction,  and  are  con- 
stituted of  the  Circuit  Judges  and  two  or  more  Judges  of  the 
County  Courts  of  the  county.  They  have  cognizance  of  all  crim- 
inal offences. 

The  Supreme  Court  has  original  jurisdiction  of  all  civil  actions  at 
law  arising  within  the  State.  Practically,  however,  this  jurisdic- 
tion only  extends  to  where  the  amount  in  controversy  exceeds 
§50.  It  has  also  an  appeilate  jurisdiction  in  criminal  cases,  brought 
before  it  from  courts  having  the  original  jurisdiction  by  certiorari 
or  writs  of  error. 

The  Courts  of  Chancery  comprehends  all  the  court*  of  equity  juris- 
diction within  the  State.  Proceedings  in  it  are  brought  either  before 
the  Chancellor  or  one  of  the  Vice  Chancellors.  All  actions,  where 
relief  in  equity  is  sought,  may  also  be  brought  before  the  Chan- 
cellor, and  any  action  where  such  relief  is  sought,  may  also  be 
brought  l>efore  the  Vice  Chancellor  of  the  circuit,  in  which  the  cause 
of  action  arose  ;  or,  where  either  of  the  defendants  live.  The  pro- 
ceedings in  either  case  are  entitled  "In  Chancery,"  and  the  parti- 
cular court,  before  which  they  are  brought,  is  designated.  In  ad- 
dition to  his  original  jurisdiction,  the  Chancellor  has  an  appellate 
jurisdiction  in  all  cases  decided  by  a  Vice  Chancellor  or  by  any  Sur- 
rogate. 

Surrogate's  Courts  have  now  the  probate  of  all  wills  of  real  as 
Iwell  as  personal  estate,  the  control  of  executors  and  adminis- 
itrators,  and  the  charge  of  infants'  estate.  The  Chancellor  also 
has  power  to  issue  commissions,  and  take  proof  of  wills  of  both 
personal  and  real  estate,  in  \ases  where  the  witnesses  reside  out 
of  the  State;  he  also  has  power  to  appoint  general  and  special 
guardians  of  the  persons  and  the  estate  of  infants. 

The  Court  for  the  Correction  of  Errors  is  constituted  of  the  Pre- 
sident of  the  Senate,  Chancellor,  and  Judges  of  the  Supreme  Court. 
It  has  appellate  jurisdiction  only,  an  I  has  the  review  of  decrees 
made  by  the  Court  of  Chancery,  which  are  brought  before  it  upon 
appeals,  and  the  judgments  of  the  Supreme  Court,  brought  up  upon 
a  writ  of  error.  When  sitting  as  a  court  of  appeals  from  decrees 
made  by  the  Court  of  Chancery,  the  Chancellor  has  no  vote  upon 
its  decisions;  and,  in  like  manner,  when  acting  upon  writs  of  error 
from  the  Supreme  Court,  the  Justices  of  that  court  have  no  vote. 
The  decisions  of  this  court  are  final.

STREET  AND  AVENUE  DIRECTORY 
Of  the  City  of  IVew  York. 


EXP  L  AN  ATION. 

If  you  wish  to  find  the  location  of  any  particular  house  or  store,— for  instance, 
No.  80  Allen-street,  on  consulting'  the  "Street  Directory,  you  will  observe  that  68 
Allen  is  on  the  right  hand  of  that  street  and  the  corner  of  Grand,  and  88  Allen 
on  the  right-hanu  corner  of  Broome  :  hence  the  desired  number  will  be  on  the 
right-hand  side  of  Allen-street,  between  Grand  and  Broome. 

Many  of  the  streets  are  very  irregularly  numbered  :  this  is  especially  true  in 
regard  to  all  streets  above  Eighth  and  east  of  Avenue  5th;  and  in  some  streets 
the  numbers  change  from  right  to  left. 

Note. — The  streets  above  Twelfth-street  are  divided  by  Avenue  5th,  into  East 
and  West — as  East  Thirteenth,  West  Thirteenth— and  those  streets  located 
above  described  will  be  found,  therefore,  in  this  work,  under  East  and  West.

[From  Gen.  James  Tallmadffe,  Presiden  t  of  the  American  Institute.] 

Saunders'  Razor  Strop,  with  its  four  sides,  combines  admirably 
all  the  requisites  to  sharpen  and  set  razors,  with  a  fine  and  smooth 
edge — it  is  a  real  comfort  to  possess  it. 

New  York,  November,  1841.  James  Tallmadge. 

[Prom  M.  Milliken,  Cutler  to  the  Royal  Navy,  301  Strand.] 

The  Metallic  Tablet,  in  its  use,  is  simple  ;  having  the  same  effect 
on  a  razor  as  a  hone,  without  using  oil  or  water,  and  in  a  tenth 
part  of  the  time.  After  five  years'  trial,  I  can  recommend  it  with 
perfect  confidence.  M.  Millikin. 

[Prom  Professor  Griscom  and  Dr.  Valentine  Mott.] 

George  Saunders'  Improved  Strop. — We  can  freely  testify 
to  its  value.  The  side  which  he  calls  the  Metallic  Tablet,  is,  as 
far  as  we  know,  a  thing  of  his  own  introduction  in  this  country  ; 
it  appears  to  be  an  excellent,  convenient  substitute  for  a  hone,  and 
operates  on  the  same  principle  as  steel  does  upon  a  table  knife,  but 
with  far  greater  smoothness  and  certainty  :  it  saves  the  unpleasant 
necessity  of  oil  and  water,  to  assist  in  whetting.  The  other  three 
sides  of*  the  strop  are  extremely  well  finished,  flat,  smooth  and 
almost  elastic,  preserving  the  razor  from  that  roundness  of  edge 
which  so  soon  destroys  its  keenness.  J.  Griscom.

BR.  BRANDRETH'S  ADDRESS  TO  THE  PEOPLE. 

There  are  in  the  world  medicines  adapted  for  the  cure  of  dis- 
eases of  every  form  and  every  symptom.  And  when  men  follow 
the  instincts  of  their  nature  they  use  Brandreth's  Pills  for  the 
cure  of  their  maladies.  And  those  who  have  done  so,  have  not  had 
cause  for  repentance  with  reference  thereto.  These  Pills  are  indeed 
quietly  becoming  the  reliable  medicine  of  mankind  ;  for  all  who 
use  them  in  accordance  with  the  printed  directions,  find  so  much 
benefit  individually,  that  they  recommend  them  to  all  such  of  their 
friends  as  may  not  at  the  time  be  enjoying  good  health.  These 
universally  celebrated  Pills  take  out  of  the  body  all  diseased, 
decayed,  or  unhealthy  particles ;  they  eradicate  everything  from 
the  human  body  contrary  to  its  healthy  condition.  No  matter  of 
how  long  duration  the  complaint  may  have  been,  there  is  every 
chance  of  recovery  when  the  Pills  are  commenced  with,  and  it  is 
utterly  impossible  for  them  to  injure  ;  nearly  a  century's  use  has 
proved  them  innocent  as  bread,  yet  all  powerful  for  the  removal  of 
disease,  whether  chronic  or  recent,  infectious  or  otherwise.  We 
have  an  account  to  settle  with  ourselves  as  regards  the  pleasures 
and  pains  of  this  life.  It  is  soon  stated.  Suppose  you  are  highly 
favored  by  nature,  having  a  sound  mind  in  a  sound  body,  the  lot 
of  but  few.  You  cannot  but  be  atfected  when  you  observe  so 
much  suffering  from  bodily  infirmity  around  you,  which  neither 
riehes  nor  the  palliative  prescriptions  of  physicians  are  able  to 
obviate.  Even  the  best  health  is  insecure,  unless  a  certain  remedy 
can  be  used  when  the  first  advances  of  sickness  come  on.  If,  then, 
you  would  avoid  this  state  of  things,  and  if  you  are  anxious  to 
secure  your  own  health,  your  judgment  and  long  vigorous  old  age, 
take  Brandreth's  Pills  ;  with  them  you  can  never  err ;  and  you 
will  avoid  all  the  miseries  of  an  infirm  ailing  existence.  Let 
every  one  whose  health  is  not  perfect  take  them  daily  for  one 
month  ;  instead  of  weakening  you,  you  will  find  all  your  faculties 
of  mind  and  body  improved  ;  all  kinds  of  food  will  give  you  plea- 
sure, and  none  whatever  will  disagree  with  you.  Your  digestion 
will  proceed  smoothly  and  pleasantly  ;  your  stomach  will  not 
require  the  assistance  of  v/ine  bitters  or  drams :  in  fact,  you  will 
soon  learn  these  things  are  injurious.  The  reason  it  is  easy  to 
explain.  Digestion  is  affected  solely  by  the  solvent  power  of  the 
bile.  This  bile  is  made  by  and  is  secreted  from  the  blood.  It  is 
produced  by  the  same  operation  from  the  blood  as  is  the  growth  of 
the  body,  or  any  part  thereof,  as  the  bones,  the  hair,  the  eye,  or 
the  nails.  By  the  use  of  Brandreth's  Pills  you  expel  out  of 
the  body  those  corrupt  humors  which  impede  dige  -tion,  and  cramp 
nature  in  all  her  operations — those  humors  which  produce  Can- 1 
cer,  Rheumatism,  Consumption,  Piles,  and,  in  fact,  all  the  longi 
catalogue  of  diseases  to  which  humanity  is  subject,  but  which  are! 
reducible  to  one,  Impurity  of  Blood.  Custom  has  designated) 
the  name  of  the  disease,  by  the  place  upon  which  the  impurity  of 
the  blood  settles  or  deposites  itself ;  thus  upon  the  lungs,  Con-! 
sumption,  upon  the  muscles,  Rheumatism  ;  if  upon  the  skin, 
Erysipelas  and  Leprosy  ;  upon  the  knee,  a  White  Swelling;  and 
wfeerever  pain  is  felt,  or  any  feeling  in  any  part  of  the  body  con- 
trary to  health,  there  the  impurity  of  the  body  is  endeavoring  to 
establish  its  evil  influence.  So  in  Costiveness  it  is  occasioned  by 
the  impurity  of  the  blood,  which  has  become  seated  upon  the) 


ADVERTISEMENTS.  1  57 

!  muscles  of  the  bowels,  and  which  prevents  the  proper  action  of 
the  bile  to  produce  the  daily  evacuation  of  morbid  deposites.  But 
all  these  effects  of  impure  blood  are  cured  or  prevented  by  the  use 
of  Brandreth' s  Pills.  In  a  word,  they  will  give  the  power  and 
vigor  to  the  human  constitution  it  was  intended  to  have  by  nature, 
and  which  it  possessed  before  the  absurd  notions  of  the  great  ad- 
vantages of  the  Tonic  or  bracing  and  mineral  medicines  were 
acted  upon.  Instead  of  finding  your  digestive  powers  and  strength 
diminish,  as  you  will  be  told  by  doctors  and  other  interested  per- 
sons, you  will  find  your  strength  and  digestion  daily  improve,  and 
all  the  energies  of  your  mind  and  body  more  lively  and  vigorous. 
You  will  soon  perceive  that  you  are  every  day  adding  to  your  well- 
being,  by  the  simple  operation  of  evacuating-  from  your  body  the 
noxious  humors  of  the  blood,  the  source  of  all  the  pain  and  misery 
experienced  in  the  human  body.  Such  is  the  benign  operation  of 
Brandreth's  Pills,  that  they  only  take  out  of  the  body  what  is 
hurtful  to  it,  thus  producing  its  purification  and  its  perfect  health. 

The  Brandreth  Pills  are  the  best  medicine  for  families  and 
i  schools.  No  medicine  is  so  well  adapted  for  the  occasional  sick- 
'  ness  of  children.  By  having  them  in  the  house,  and  giving  them 
i  when  the  first  symptoms  show  themselves,  the  sickness  mil  be 
the  affair  of  only  a  few  hours  ;  and,  in  scarlet  fever,  measles  and 
worms,  there  is  no  medicine  so  safe  and  so  sure  to  cure.  It  is  all 
that  should  be  used  or  that  ought  to  be  used.  I  speak  as  a  father, 
and  from  experience. 

Ladies  should  use  Brandreth's  Pills  frequently.  They  will 
ensure  them  from  severe  sickness  of  the  stomach,  and,  generally 
speaking,  entirely  prevent  it.  The  Brandreth  Pills  are  harmless. 
They  increase  the  powers  of  life, they  do  not  depress  them.  Females 
will  find  them  to  secure  that  state  of  health  which  every  mother 
wishes  to  enjoy.  In  costiveness,  so  often  prevalent  at  an  interest- 
ing period,  tlie  Brandreth  Pills  are  a  safe  and  effectual  remedy. 

There  is  no  medicine  so  safe  as  this  ;  it  is  more  easy  than  Cas- 
tor Oil,  and  is  now  generallv  used  by  numerous  ladies  during  their 
confinement,  to  the  exclusion  of  all  other  purgatives  ;  and  the 
Pills  being  composed  entirely  of  herbs  or  vegetable  matter,  purify 
the  blood  and  carry  oft'  the  corrupt  humors  of  the  body,  in  a  man- 
ner so  simple  as  to  give  every  day  ease  and  pleasure. 

The  Brandreth  Pills  are  sold  at  25  cents  per  box,  with  full 
directions,  at  one  store  in  every  town  in  the  United  States.  Let 
all  who  purchase  inquire  for  the  certificate,  on  which  are  fac- 
similes of  the  labels  on  the  box  ;  if  like  the  Pills,  they  are  genu- 
ine— if  not,  not.  There  has  yet  been,  I  believe,  no  counterfeit  of 
the  new  labels,  and  it  is  to  be  hoped  there  will  not,  for  it  is  impos 
sible  to  imagine  a  greater  crime  than  that  of  making  money  by 
the  miseries  of  mankind.  The  public  servant,

FOR 

BOOTS    AND  SHOES. 

An  Article  superior  to  anything  ever  before  manufactured  in 
this  country,  for  durability,  beauty  and  utility. 

Loriii  Brooks,  138  Fulton  Street,  N.  Y., 

Takes  this  opportunity  of  calling  the  attention  of  the  public  gene- 
rally, to  the  superior  advantages  of  adopting  his  improved  boots  and 
shoes,  in  which  he  has  introduced  the  Patent  Elastic  Metallic 
Shanks.  To  the  wearer  it  presents  the  following  among  many- 
other  advantages  over  the  old  method  of  stiffening  the  soles  of 
boots  and  shoes  by  several  layers  of  leather  :  by  the  elasticity  of 
the  shank  which  is  placed  in  the  inner  sole,  it  gives  a  graceful 
turn  to  the  foot,  and  i  i  very  important  to  ladies  and  gentlemen 
fond  of  dancing;  to  the  pedestrian  it  gives  ease,  preventing  the 
foot  from  pressing  forward  in  the  boot,  whilst  to  flat-footed  persons 
it  is  equally  advantageous,  as  the  arch  or  hollow  of  the  boot  is 
[still  preserved.

"BOUGHT  IT  IN  WILLIAM  STREET  102." 

On  Olympus,  one  day  a  dispute  there  began, 
Between  Venus  and  Juno — the  subject  was  man. 
Said  Venus,  I  think  that  a  century  ago 
Man  was  not  so  handsome  as  now,  do  you  know. 
My  dear,  said  Jove's  wife,  though  I  seldom  look  down 
On  the  creatures  of  earth,  yet  I  really  must  own 
That  I  do  think  the  men  have  improved,  and  yet  why 
If  1  know,  my  dear  Venus,  I  wish  I  may  die. 
The  improvements,  said  Venus,  you'll  mark  in  their  faces; 
'Tis  some  charm,  I  am  sure,  of  that  trio,  the  Graces. 
Very  likely,  said  Juno.    Now,  can't  we,  between  us, 
Ferret  out  what  this  wonderful  charm  is  1  said  Venus. 
At  this  moment,  alighted  beside  them  sly  Cupid ; 
Oh,  mother  !  he  cried,  you're  confoundedly  stupid ! 
I  know  what  the  charm  is — I  have  it — dear  mother. 
Now  guess  what  it  is — first  one,  then  the  other. 
They  guessed — 'twas  no  use — though  their  guesses  were 
clever ; 

So  the  god,  who  this  charm  had  concealed  in  his  quiver, 
Drew  it  forth  with  an  air  as  demure  as  a  quaker ; 
'Twas  the  Magical  Strop,  of  which  Chapman's  the  maker. 
Then  away  like  a  bird  the  young  wanderer  flew, 
Shouting, "  Bought  it  in  William  street,  hundred  and  two."
